Question 26 • Financial Math
Calculate the earnings for each plan using $73,620 in sales. Plan A pays 6% × $73,620 = $4,417.20; plan B pays $3,000 + (2% × $73,620) = $4,472.40. Plan C pays $2,000 on the first $50,000 plus $2,125.80 on the remaining $23,620, for $4,125.80. Plan D pays $1,750 on the first $35,000 plus $2,703.40 on the remaining $38,620, for $4,453.40. The highest earnings are $4,472.40, so the monthly salary plus 2% commission is best.
